Back To The 70's

[bods1000]

Shoot! Let's just finalize time and place later next week. Et vous, Storm? How about the others? Anyone know of a place where they play 70s music?

 

I've heard that Jill's in the Fort plays 70's or 80's music at a certain day of the week, just not sure when....

[willow_boy]

wow! :evil:

mid-70's....so contemporary nya sina Linda Lovelace and Marilyn Chambers hmmm...

 

I've been meaning to have these 70's porno flicks pero I dont know where to find them. Para sa akin mas magaganda pa yung mga x-rated nuon. Deep Throat, Behind the Green Door, the Taboo series, all those Traci Lords ficks, the Debbie series, etc..

 

Yup, she was a contemporary of those stars you mentioned. By the way, the girl who played Debbie in Debbie Does Dallas, Bambi Woods, is gone too. Actually she died quite young. She died in the early 80s from a drug overdose. Mukhang magkakaroon yata ng remake nito and Vivid Films will be producing it.

 

"Debbie" was filmed in a real college campus in New York back in 1978. The movie's producers sought and obtained permission from the school administrators to film in the campus. Unbeknownst to the latter, it was a porn movie.

It also ratifies some amendments to the 1973 constitution, the most anomalous of which is Amendment No. 6. This gives the president awesome powers to issue decrees, orders and letters of instruction which form part of the law of the land.

Dont know if am correct. A powerful earthquake hit Manila around April 1970 ba yun? I only remember then I was having lunch and watching ABSCBNs noontime show WINNER TAKE ALL hosted by ROD NAVARRO when the quake strucked. He said to the audience (live) to keep calm tapos when it became apparent that it was getting stronger, siya ang nanguna sa pagtakbo. But later on the TV showed the tower of ABSCBN swaying during the height of the quake. Good thing there was a general strike ng mga jeepney drivers then if not ang daming nabagsakang student at a school (nag collapse) near us.

That must have been what's often called the "Ruby Tower Earthquake" because of the collapse of the Ruby Tower. That must have been '68 or 69'. We were still so young at the time. My brothers and I were watching TV and so we kept joking about another earthquake, when suddenly there came a strong aftershock! The 1978 earthquake in Lanao was particularly gruesome because of the TV images of dead people, one of whom had his arms up, probably trying to hang on to something as the tsunami hit. BTW, I practically predicted the 1990 quake. I was talking to my Ninang and said we're due for one. Strong quakes in our lovely PI seem to happen in 10-year periods, give or take a few years.

=================================================

 

No, its not the Ruby Tower thing. That earthquake occured at 4 in the morning. I vividly remember that as it was my first quake experience. Sikat na sikat pa nun si Rafael Yabut and Johnny Midnight. What I was referring to was the quake that occured around 1 in the afternoon. Now, I remember na, the P.Gomez High school near Central Market sa Manila collapsed but fortunately , O.D. Corpuz declared the day no classes dahil sa jeepney strike and they were protesting sa Plaza Miranda. It was the second major quake I have experienced in my life. The third was the terrifying 1990 quake. Inabutan ko sa work at 9th floor, Prudential Bank Building (yung bulok na building sa Ayala near the corner of Paseo de Roxas). Akala ko katapusan ko na. That where I felt na hopeless case na. Looked up the window and saw people in Ayala, nakatingala sa akin, ako naman naka dungaw sa kanila.

now that's interesting...didn't know Leonard Nimoy was there too...

 

now what happened to Martin Landau after his Oscar-winning turn in ED WOOD? Saw that movie again in HBO and it was sure fun. PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE was voted in a book as the worst movie ever! Martin Landau as Bela Lugosi in ED WOOD was simply outstanding...

 

 

Oo pareng Bods, ang sagwa talaga nung Plan 9...pero d ba mas masagwa yung "Glen...or Glenda"???
